Cantus Recordings - Student Recordings

 

Introit (1997)

Introit"The young men of Cantus perform choral literature ranging from polyphony and chant to art songs and spirituals. Therefore the Latin 'O Sacrum Convivium' and Tallis' 'If Ye Love Me' reside along a 20th century Gustaffson-composed Kyrie and Gloria, the dissonant intervals heralding the epoch of modernism."

Tidings (1998)

Tidings "Their holiday disc includes many traditional favorites and an original version of 'Deck the Halls' (5/4 meter, a tour de force and departure in style). The classically trained voices are well-suited to the sacred material. A calming shelter from the Christmas frenzy."

These three recordings were produced when Cantus was a student ensemble at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN. They are fine recordings, but they do not represent the professional standards that Cantus now upholds.
